For the price this is a great keyboard and mouse. Can’t fault it. If you think you are missing the dongle…it’s in the flap of the box! Took me a while to locate it but it’s definitely there.

I wanted something i could use from the sofa and i went for the Logitech MK270 Wireless Keyboard and Mouse, and for the price, it’s pretty solid. The keyboard works perfectly and is really comfortable to type on, No real complaints.

However, the mouse is where this combo loses a star. It’s not as smooth or accurate as my Logitech Pro Wireless (which i was never expecting). For long-term or heavy use, the mouse can get frustrating because it’s just not as precise and feels alittle laggy. But if you’re only using it irregularly or just need a basic setup for occasional tasks, it’s definitely worth putting up with, especially given the price.

Unfortunately, my previous keyboard/mouse combo died and needed urgent replacement. This is cheap but surprisingly good.
Pros: price, able to switch off both keyboard and mouse (saves battery), responsive keyboard facilitates fast and accurate touch typing, instant connection using USB dongle, good keyboard layout including numeric pad, reasonably responsive mouse (but basic and not particularly ergonomic)
Cons: keyboard a bit noisy (compared to my previous keyboard), be careful not to throw away the USB doggle by mistake as not immediately obvious in packaging, keyboard too long to be classed as portable (mainly due to numeric pad – so depends on personal priorities), no wrist support (again personal priorities – size versus functionality)
On the whole a good purchase – especially for the price.

Purchased this set as wanted to get rid of wires clogging up my workspace. Instead of purchasing separately a wireless mouse and keyboard thought juts have one set with one single connector (usb that will connect both peripherals). Found this set quite ergonomic, just the right size for good usability. All commands/clicks on the mouse or keyboard have a smooth execution (would not expect anything less from Logitech product). I would recommand as it is good quality. If at sale price, even better!

Given all the positive reviews, this is clearly a great kb +mouse combo for the price. I got unlucky though and had to return them. The flex in the keyboard isn’t unreasonable at this price level but I also had an overly sensitive F1 key. Just picking the keyboard up or moving it was enough to trigger it. As many apps use the F1 key, I was getting unwanted windows and offers of help constantly. Others are unlikely to be so unfortunate.
Other than that it isn’t bad to type on. My only gripe would be the lack of numlock indicator. Odd given that there is a capslock indicator. The mouse feels lightweight and is basic but will work fine for most users.

The mouse is to small, i have small hands that can go in a pickle jar and the mouse is to small for me.
Other than that the keyboard works just fine.

For the price, I don’t expect this to be the best in terms of performance, build quality and ergonomics. However, it works pretty well… once you discover where the usb receiver is hidden!

DON’T THROW THE BOX AWAY!!!

Check the flap to the box for the USB receiver. I assumed it would be in the mouse. It was not!

Despite it being a full size keyboard, it has a minimised surround, which can make things interesting when handling it, especially if you work with a keyboard on your lap and constantly move it around (not much surround to grab onto).

The mouse is small but with my big hands this isn’t too much of an issue.

It comes with batteries in both mouse and keyboard

Overall for light work it’s fine. I only use this occasionally and would always revert to a wired mouse/keyboard. It’s all down to preference.

This is the second Logitech MK270 I received. The first one had two keys which didn’t register and the left mouse button often didn’t recognise a double click. Return and replace procedure very easy and quick. All keys work on this keyboard and it’s a pleasure to touch type. There is group separation of the keys so there’s a definite space between the main keyboard, the direction keys with delete, insert etc and then the number pad. My previous MS keyboard didn’t have this separation with the result that I often hit the insert key instead of the backspace one. The Caps Lock has an indicator on the top right of the keyboard but does not have one for Numbers Lock. Only time I find this a problem is with entering passwords where input is hidden on screen but I appreciate that companies are trying to conserve battery power. It is very stable on the desk and I haven’t experienced any sliding problems with it. Key movement is more than that found on laptop type keyboards and for me, and I would imagine other touch typists, it’s far preferable. I’ve only had this for a couple of days so obviously cannot comment on reliability but initial impressions are good.

The average sized mouse is very comfortable, even for long periods but I should state that I have small hands. It slides on the desk top very smoothly but it should be noted that my desk is black. I tried it on a sheet of white paper and it was completely unresponsive so those with a light coloured desk would require a mouse mat. Left or right single clicks are instantaneous and accurate but double left clicks don’t always register and sometimes have to be repeated. This also happened on the returned set so I assume it’s a general fault and is the reason for a star being deducted. The scroll wheel has slight resistance so there’s no problem of pages shooting up the screen uncontrolled. Apart from the double click problem it’s a great product for me. I use my pc for hours of photo processing so the mouse is in constant use and I have no problem with aching fingers or wrists. As with the keyboard, I have no idea what long term reliability will be like.

My PC is on the desk top so the distance to the receiver is only about half a metre. However, I have tried it out from the other side of the room, three and a half metres and it reacted in exactly the same manner with no dropped characters.

For the price, it’s very good value and I recommend it.

Update, June 2020:

Mouse decided to make double left clicks when only one required and often taking no action at all or the wrong action with either left or right clicks. The keyboard is still working well so not bothering to return and have ordered a Microsoft mouse instead. Not quite so comfortable in the hand but we’ll see how long term reliability is in due course.
